15 Horrifying Video Game Easter Eggs You Totally Missed

7. Psychonauts €“ The Burning Orphanage

As far as video game premises go, a game about kids with psychic powers infiltration other peoples' minds and taking control is certainly out there €“ but that€™s what cult hit Psychonauts was about. It€™s normally all quirky and light-hearted fun, yet there are some deep, dark secrets that the game doesn€™t want you to see. More specifically, in the level €œMilla€™s Dance Party€ you€™re inside the mind of Milla, your Brazilian instructor. While most of the level lives up to that name, there€™s one room there that Milla specifically warns you away from €“ telling you it€™s a €œparty killer€. To be fair, she€™s not wrong. Inside the room is a hellish backdrop of burning, heckling figures jeering things like €œMilla, why did you let us die?€ and €œWhy won€™t you help us?€, while the normally cheerful instructor begs you to leave. Then you find the scrapbook, and all is revealed; Milla used to own an orphanage that burnt down. With the kids inside. And they all died horribly. Lovely.
